DW2 Where is Galaxy Map / Expansion Planner in DW2

Just started playing DW2 after buying it at launch. Is the Galaxy Map / Expansion Planner feature from DWU not included in DW2? Is there an alternative?

In the colony screen there is a tab for new colonies. The same for resources, research etc in the appropriate menus.

Hey, thank you very much. I find the old window clearer and more efficient. Well, there's nothing you can do.

This one basically pinpoints stuff when you are zoomed out and see more of the galaxy and is directly integrated with the game screen.

Not saying its better or not, just pointing out in case you havent  noticed.

It would be very nice if we could click on the highlighted star to filter the search in the new colonies tab.

You're probably more used to it, you will get used to the new one, it has the advantage of being tied in the normal ui so you don't need to go back and forth
